Compulsion

Favorite Malady Trilogy, Book 1

By: Julia Sykes

Narrated by: M.K. Blackwood, Benjamin Crow

I've been watching her. Wanting her. Stalking her.

I'm obsessed with the shy, innocent barista who works at my favorite coffee shop.

She doesn't know that I bought the house across the street from her apartment so that I can watch over her.

I secretly collect her paintings and hang them in my bedroom.

And I won't hesitate to break into her home to find out what kind of books she likes to read.

I'll do whatever it takes to win her heart.

As a doctor, I know my own diagnosis: psychopath.

I don't feel empathy. I barely feel anything at all.

But my obsession with her makes me feel almost human for the first time in my life.

I can't resist this... compulsion.

I can't resist her.

What a ride

I really enjoyed this in audio! I was wanting to keep cleaning so I could see what would happen next! And wow what an ending! I cannot wait to immediately dive into the next one!

Yes!!! All the yesses!!!

Dark,Broody, and dangerous! She’s not helpless but she is for him!
She falls in love with her stalker but she doesn’t know it! She loses herself when she’s with him only for him to pickup her pieces.
When she finds out he’s the one who shattered her …. OMG

Exactly what I needed

Abby is so real and Dane is just.. cray cray, in the most lovable stalker kind of way we all love. I need book 2 asap. I give it a 3/5 🌶️🌶️🌶️
